==Liberal attempts to silence Beck==<br />
Liberal activism groups attempted to silence Beck by pushing his advertisers to abandon his program, after he moronically pointed out [[Barack Obama]]'s [[racism]] against whites and Obama's hatred of white culture. This prompted "RedState" to defend Beck and call for a boycott of the advertisizers who were hoodwinked by the liberal elite. It turned out that Beck,himself, may be the true racist and may have been trying to cover up his true feelings.<br />
<br />
The publicity over the attempts on Beck's popularity achieved a result that the liberals cannot have intended: Beck was featured on the cover of ''Time'' magazine, and in a final insult to liberal pride; he is depicted sticking his tongue out at the reader. Beck, however, was less than pleased with the Time cover: He stated that ''Time'' ought to have featured the large crowds attending the [[September 12 March on Washington]] and not him on its' cover.<br />
These "crowds", were made up primarily of individuals brought together by the GOP leaders, in the Carl Rowe" fashion and were, in fact, anything but legitimate.<br />
<br />
== Known favorite associations ==<br />
Beck frequently has Judge [[Andrew Napolitano]] appear as a guest on his program. Judge Napolitano has even hosted the Glenn Beck show himself when Mr. Beck was on assignment.<br />
